Jim Geraghty
is hearing that the choice is Pawlenty. Please say it ain't so.
His awful on-air joke about his wife not having sex with him
earlier this year shows he is not ready for prime time. His global
warming advocacy was so extreme earlier this year that it turned
off fellow GOP governors, quite seriously. His TV appearances have
shown him to coome across as without substance and without
memorability. And his statement two years ago that the era of small
government is over, and that government needs to be more aggressive
and proactive, is a total deal-killer for the limited-government
people who STILL remain the heart and soul of the heartland GOP and
of the conservative movement. Again, please say it ain't so.
